| Test laboratory for non electric radiators |
With its own testing and development center in Switzerland, Zehnder Group has a unique instrument to fully optimize radiator innovations of non electric radiators made in the various group companies in terms of both technology and performance. Zehnder Group is the first company in the radiator industry to establish a fully automated test laboratory that can measure performance radiator with the precision of a chronometer. |

| Test laboratory for electric radiators |
Unlike radiators connected to a central heating system, the liquid in an electric radiator is heated via an electric immersion heater built into the radiator. The necessary power comes from an electric socket. The electric immersion heater is controlled via a programmable control unit – certain models have a remote control system. This controls room temperature, a daily or weekly program, periods when the radiator is switched on/off, and much more. Zehnder Group has its own state-of-the-art test laboratory in
France in order to test the numerous new developments made in
electric radiators for living areas and in electric towel radiators;
the laboratory also allows it to draw up the technical data necessary
to homologate its products. |
